Pashminas are really useful for many types of situations since they are painless to stick in your handbag if you get too hot. The wool of the pashmina keeps out the cool weather very effectively, so instead of dragging around a large jacket on a chilly spring or summer evening, a pashmina will serve as a useful outer garment.

Pashmina shawls are now really in vogue as a fashion accessory/apparel at weddings. Recent summertimes in Britain have been rather chilly, so maybe this has advanced this new fashion. Gold pashminas as well as cream an white are fashionable selections for marriage ceremonies, and look great if all the bridesmaids have the same colour pashmina shawl. Even a light, silk scarf makes a super fashion accessory for the wedding.

If you order a larger size pashmina, it can also become a handy blanket for those arduous trips. And it goes without saying, a shawl can transform into a scarf for the winter.

There are two varieties of pashmina – the 100% pure pashmina shawl, and the 70% pashmina / 30% silk variety. The non-pure pashmina shawl you can purchase at lower prices than the 100% opposite number, but it’s less soft. It’s up to you as to how you want to wear your pashmina. Is it purely for fashion purposes, or ALSO a garment to keep out the cold too? We strongly recommend pure pashmina shawls to keep you warm.
